How AI Made Mark Zuckerberg Popular Again In Silicon Valley

Many developers and technologists have embraced the Meta chief as their champion of 'open-source' artificial intelligence MIKE ISAAC 29 May When Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive of Meta, announced last year that his company would release an artificial intelligence system, Jeffrey Emanuel had reservations.
How AI Made Mark Zuckerberg Popular Again In Silicon Valley

Emanuel, a part-time hacker and fulltime AI enthusiast, had tinkered with "closed" AI models, including OpenAI's, meaning the systems' underlying code could not be accessed or modified. When Zuckerberg introduced Meta's AI system by invitation only to a handful of academics, Emanuel was concerned that the technology would remain limited to just a small circle of people.

But in a release last summer of an updated AI system, Zuckerberg made the code "open source" so that it could be freely copied, modified and reused by anyone.

Emanuel, the founder of the blockchain start-up Pastel Network, was sold. He said he appreciated that Meta's AI system was powerful and easy to use.

Most of all, he loved how Zuckerberg was espousing the hacker code of making the technology freely available-largely the opposite of what Google, OpenAI and Microsoft have done.
